Ulead Systems, Inc, has incorporated double-layer DVD burning into
VideoStudio 8, Ulead's five-time Editors' Choice winner for
consumer video editing software. Along with VideoStudio 8, Ulead now
offers double-layer DVD burning support with DVD MovieFactory 3,
Ulead's consumer-level DVD creation software, and DVD Workshop 2,
Ulead's professional DVD authoring software. With Ulead software,
consumers and professionals who own a double-layer DVD burner can now
double the size of their digital photos, video and music files used to
create DVD productions.

The double-layer DVD is the latest DVD format which offers a longer
recording time and/or higher recording quality for video applications.
Adding an additional storage layer increases the storage capacity of a
DVD disc to 8.5 GB, which allows users to burn approximately 4 hours of
DVD-quality video. With nearly double the capacity of a single-layer DVD
disc, the increased capacity allows users to burn longer or higher
quality DVD productions on one disc. Double layer DVD discs are
backwards-compatible and can be played on most DVD players sold in the
market today.

"Ulead is proud to be one of the first companies to
incorporate support for the latest double-layer DVD burning technology
into its video and DVD software products," said Rick Han, vice
president of Ulead's DVD Product Development Center "Along
with enjoying the benefits of easy-to-use software, our customers will
be impressed with impeccable burning results when they burn their
projects to double layer discs."

"Our mission is to ensure that all Ulead customers are able to
enjoy the latest technology in order to share their digital media in the
best way possible," said Ellen Wang, associate vice president who
oversees of Ulead's Global Marketing. "Our customers and
partners will be pleased to know that we plan to continue incorporating
double layer DVD support in all future DVD burning products."

Ulead Systems, Inc. is a developer of video, imaging and DVD
authoring software for desktop, server, mobile and Internet platforms.
As more people use digital technologies at home, school and the
workplace, Ulead software empowers users of all levels with the tools to
easily and affordably personalize, manage and share digital content.
